When anyone who isn`t a white and relatively well-off man strides into a public place and guns down innocent civilians, we attack his race and/or religious beliefs before we bury his victims in the ground. But when yet another privileged white guy storms into a school or movie theater and kills dozens of people, we assume there`s something wrong with his brain instead of wondering whether his murderous rage has anything to do with good ol` American macho entitlement. Are we ready to talk about it yet? Let`s.

We actually do mention these things at VDARE.com, but no one else does.

This is hardly the first time we`ve questioned what makes white middle-class dudes more prone to shooting up public spaces; last summer, after the Aurora movie theater massacre, Hugo Schwyzer wrote that “the fact that these white male mass murderers felt so confident choosing public spaces to commit their crimes reflects a powerful truth about the culture in which they were raised.”

It’s nonsense. Have I noticed that white dudes keep mass murdering people? No, I`ve noticed that when there is a rare crime committed by a “White Dude” it`s massively promoted in the media. Crimes of the same kind, committed by blacks or Asian and Hispanic immigrants, do not receive this promotion.

But it doesn`t have photos for all of them, and there is only one black face. Here are eight photographs omitted from the Mother Jones page, which would have made it look more like America as it is today.(Victim numbers include wounded.)

Notably, Omar Thornton`s victims were investigated posthumously by the media and by the Manchester Police to see if they were racist—as he claimed before murdering them. They were posthumously cleared.

Even more notably, Colin Ferguson, an immigrant from Jamaica, tried to use his racial motive as a defense in his trial. He called it the “Black Rage” defense.

So yes, Gawker Media, we have noticed something. But it was something you didn`t want us to notice.
